Looks like MS fans are already preparing their "It doesn't matter" speeches.

Ive been saying this since 2010. We all know its gonna happen at some point. 

But for the former #1 brand in gaming to crawl to 2nd place after 7+ years and in all likelihood after the next xbox is released, not to mention the marketshare gains Xbox has made at the expense of Sonys.......to celebrate victory is to celebrate lowering the bar for your faction.

So by all means, celebrate


PS3 has outsold Xbox360 every full year on the market except for 2008. In direct competition, the 360 has lost. Nothing you say can change this fact.

Who's made more money? Who gained more this gen (3rd party support & Owning U.S.)? Who converted many millions to their brand? Who has held a lead and outwitted the whole way? Sony has took it in the pants this gen. 720 will launch with ps3 still behind 360, fact!!! So really if ps3 does pass up 360, it will be like lighting a m1000 and it being a dud.

We don't know as MS electronics devision doesn't break it down for us. We know Sony and MS lost quite a bit of money in the early goings and are now recouping great losses. Do we know if either console has made a net profit? I honestly do not know. 

360 expanded greatly in the US, I'm not attempting to dominish MS, just pointing out that in direct competition, the PS3 has sold better.

"720 will launch with ps3 still behind 360, fact" - care to bet on this? My projections show PS3 surpassing 360 in November of next year, so it's entirely possible for this to occur.
